You've got a pretty good playoff history to yourself. Is it nice to get this one started off this way? Just wanna make sure, you know, I, I said that the 1st 40 minutes was unacceptable the way we play and, uh, we gotta make sure we, we fix that part for the next game and, and, you know, the home, home, I, it's a, it's a big privilege and we gotta make sure we take advantage of that. Yeah, a lot, a lot of things were wrong. You know, they, they, I feel like, uh, they out compete in some areas. But, uh, you know, that's, that's why we have a pretty good tm, uh, we regroup after 40 minutes, you know, we, we know what we, we have to fix and we did that. So I'm, I'm very happy that we get the w that's, that's most important these days. And, uh, sometimes iii I, if that's what you, what you gotta give up and I give up the shiny good game for the W and that's one of those moments and that was a goal, the one that they scored to win it, you won the puck he goes to the front where that's actually the first goal was, uh, was probably his, he screened pretty good. Uh, Hardley didn't see the puck and that's why I shot that puck. How big was Freddie Anderson for you guys? He's amazing. Yeah, that's why he got paid. Do you get a feeling with the Anderson? He gives up the one goal, you kind of get a feeling when he does that and he says, ok, that's it for the night. It almost feels like that. I think that safe he made early in the third was big. And like I said, it's, it's unacceptable for us. And, uh, uh, we, we, we gotta make sure we clean those because our, our goal is both goal is, is playing very good hockey and we gotta make sure we, we help them, we can make their, their job heavy. Did anything need to be said in here? No, no, no, we have a young but, you know, we trained him and, and a lot of guys played big games and sometimes you don't have to say anything. We know and, and you know, it's, we're not kids, nobody have to take baby sitter. So that's why, you know, we, after that Fred safe, we, we kind of start playing better and, and we get the w
